V Wb commend to our city readers the communication elsewhere printed, rom Dr. Dabney, our learned and- accom plished State chemist, on the important subject of the purity of Raleigh's pros pectite water supply. It is .utetifjtble that all experiments are more; or less ferude, nd soria the process of supplying cities and towns with water by fpeas of theWarious systems suggested ly mod ern icience, many imperfectiojis ave been noted. To tuese we shouldnot shut our eyes. ' On the x contrary J. we ' should seek to profit by the experience of other oommujuitiefl. This idea I Dr. Dabney j elaborates admirably, ftnd his article will therefore be found 61 in teresting by all who hate the Jood of ; near. ? I THI BVPStBLB COBBtT, We take it that the campaign: against the supreme court haa: about retched its conclusion, and it is in order, to look over the field and see what damage hn been done. If we recollect aright, all tbat the industrious assailants of the oourt have alleged may be summarized aa follows: In one case the . present oourt oterruled a decision made by a lower court; in another, a decision of the court made by judge Rutin Is ques tioned; and a thrd case, severely criti cised, was entirely misstated by:tbe as sailants, because they evidently had read neither the head note nor the de cision itself. That is about th result of the campaign. I When we consider the animus of the (assailants, their, persistency, their 'in dustry and perhaps their entire; leisure to devote their talents 'to this business so agreeable to their inclinations, we feel that it is worth while to coneratu late the oourt and the people, of the State that this searching investigation has resulted in such a fiasco. Instead of damaging the court, it must inevi tably establish it Btill more strongly in the respect of the profession and in the confidence; of the people. Consider that th i is the substance of all brought for ward against the court by dissatisfied lawvers or the partial adherents of other aspirants for seats upon the benoh, and the damage is eo slight that truly we may sat that even the ridiculous little mouse died at the birth. ' We have not Clark's Overruled Cases at hand, but that valuable compilation made by our distinguished townsman some years ago, shows a large pumber of cases overruled by former fudges; and shall it be imputed a fault ito this court that it felt in conscience baund to differ from a previous court on a matter involving the intricate subjects of "scintilla juris," conveyances udcr the statute of uses, and. other questions which the most learned lawyers will, ad mit are vert much "in nubibus' ? The present court has within the oonjpr ?s o each yerr determined three times as many appeals as ant oonrt prior to the war. And yet the ante-bellum courts, on a smaller number of appeals, knocked adjudicated cases right and left, over ruled decisions, and resettled the law to their heart's content, without crit icism or suggestion that the scf enoo o tlnlaw was going to the"demnitien bow wows!" I The present oourt appears to have sojfar profited by the vibrations And os cillations of the ante-bellum f period that, if we are correct, only on case is alleged by the critics to have been over' ruled by it, notwithstanding it -has de cided, we believe, more than two thou sand appeals 1 On this showing seems that the court must hatis stood fast by "the law and the precedents;" and we are not surprised at it; Tor the members of the court hate been5: excep tionally painstaking, careful and nidus trious, aa well as learned lawyers. Bat the record as made by tUe crit- tici speaks for -itself and our chief comment is. that the nrofeflvion and the SUte should feel proud that our supreme court has so well run the gauntlet of ad terse criticism by. anonymous writers pending a canvass for renominatlon, and instead of suffering detriment, ' has rather established more firmly its repu tation and title to the confidence of the bar and of the people.. Thi ravages of wind and water in Texas have, been frightful, froa all ac counts, rivalling in extent the damage recently done in the Northwest by fire. .The latter however is to be followed by results whioh will be long enduring and which we do not often think about. Referring to these the New York Sun says: "Fire, through its influence in creating and perpetuating the great prai ries, has already done much in shaping the growth of American population . It is within the bounds of possibility that in the not distant future fire wil influ ence in a more marked degree than in the past the occupation of thia conti nent, and that through its' agency the whole of western Africa and the plains which embrace the great lakes will be come uninhabitable from want o water or destruction of plant food, and that population will be driten back into the valley of the Mississippi, and the terri tory adjacent to the Atlantic seaboard." This is a dismal prospect and while a picture somewhat overdrawn may tery well set us to thinking and to planting trees all oyer the country. A realisa tion of the possibilities suggested in the northwest would make this deigbtfal laud of ours, adjacent to the 4-t,&Qt seaboard, tery uncomfortable Indeed. We should therefore by preoept and ex rmple seek to prevent or at let i to delay as long as possible the denr . lion ef the Northwest . I A dbcadfol duel has been barely averted at the north. Editor Hilstcad. of the Cincinnati Commercial, s$nt Col. W. G. Terrell, a crack shot, and- a mes sage to editor McLean, of the pincin nati Enquirer. The latter, however, replied through Roger A. Pryeir, dis claiming all responsibility for jthe al leged affront and bloodshed was thus avoided. There was quite a fill cor respondence, all of which was volunta rily furnished to the New York press by onef the seconds. Mr. Halstejad did not complain of anything said of him personally in the columns of the Cincin nati Enquirer. He admitted that he had retaliated in kind and that be was satisfied on that account. Bat; he did complain, to use the words of his seoond, "that a newspiper printed in jinein nati and understood to be partially owned by McLean and published in his interests had attacked him in a (nanner so offensive as to require otW notice than that he had usually prescribed for himself in controversies." To tis Mr. McLean replied "that he knaw othing of the publication until he saw-jt in print, snd that he gladly availed him self of the earliest opportune oecaeion to disclaim, all responsibility for the pub lioation and to atow n indignant re sentment at the unwarrantable qonneo tion of bis name with it." ; So th. affair i was settled, and we desire to say that it all occurred north and not soath;of M son ana Dixon f use. Wi note the fact that there was held in Centralia, 111., the other day, a reunion of the descendants of Win. Gaston, Sr., who it is stated, was of French descent and was born in this State in 1765. The affair is represented to have been a grand success "a commingling of the children Of the children whose fathers and grsnd- athers fought and bled for the country which in the early days they had sought as a refuge from oppression and asy- um of freedom in the perpetuation of which thy at all times and stages con tributed by their deeds of daring and their sets rf patriotism." The ,. Louis paper lrom whioh we get our i loimation says: "There are some 1,223 descendants of the Gas tons, the head; of which was Willirrn Gaston, ' r. ; $82 of these are alive. There rere 9 children, 55 grandchil dren, 330 great grandchildren, 670 great-great grandchildren, and 159 great-great great grandchildren. Our Ixortb Carolina Gaston was a son of t bis Wm, Gaston, Sr. So , - n we know e has no desoendarro living either in North Carolina or els-where. Tbi Cutting inoident is rapidly com ing to an end, as we have all along supposed.' Mexico is anxious to get out of. the scrape without war, and, as the Washington correspondent of the Char 1000 Observer writes his paper, will proceed to do so as follows: "When the supreme court of the state of Chihua hua, in which State Paso del Norte is situated, shall convene n a few days, for the hearing of the case which has been appointed, the decision of the in ferior oourt at Paso del NOrte will be confirmed. . The sentence of; imprison ment will then take, effect. By the Mexican constitution the , president of the republic has the right to pardon criminals punished under the laws rf any of the Btates. As soon as Cutting's sentence is partly executed that is, probably the t cond day of his impris onment President Diss will issue a pardon, and he will.be ordered to leave Mexico." Then the inoident will be ended, and this country will be deprived of the most stirring topic of conversa tion it has had in months. .The Rad Law. Cor. of the News and Observer. The present road law of this State is tar from just, and not at all equitable in its bearing upon all citiiens. To frame laws acceptable to every one is far from possible, but grievances should always be heard when properly presented, snd if the weight of justice be on the side of the plaintiff, his complaint should re ceive due consideration. 5 By taxation is the only fair and proper way to work the roads of the State. Let a certain per cent., a sum sufficient ta keep them in good order, be levied and collected annually, and applied to that purpose, and our highways would be in much better condition- than they now are. . ; Under the present system the road master collects the hands for a certain day, and at an early hour the work be gins. But how is it prosecuted ? Ant on,e who has observed the working of road hands, and is -himself familiar with farm work, will note the difference be tween the same hands when on the, farm and when on the "road." From first to last, wh i on the "road, -' there is a spirit of restless impatience to be through with the job, and the work is always imperfectly performed. Is it natural for a laborer to do the same without price that he will for hire? All nrlvate work must be naid for. All rpu3blid work should be paid for. And the overseer, how is he sif.ua -d and how is he recompensed f To begin, he is appointed to a position not wanted, forced on him, with. fo. ei ares and pen alties attached, whi. h burden he must bear until the supervisors are pleased to relieve bim of it. The constitution of North Carolina says no man shall be forced to pet form involunt?ry sertitude unless for crime and our oterseer has eommitted no crime.' ' The road-master must at each work ing take from two to three days to sum mon the hsnds in, as it is quite impossi ble to see all at the first or eten the seoond round. Placing his services at an equal valuation with those whom he superintends on the day 'the road is worked, how is he recompensed for the previous time spent in notifying hands? The road overseer is put to the same trouble in summoning road hands that the sheriff is in serving subraanas for court attendants, and yet one. is paid and the other is not paid. Is this a free country ? Is not the present road law unconstitutional? B., Jr. - Tub opinion of the Virginia supreme court affirming the opinion of the hust ings curt in the Cluverius murder case has been returned to the office of the clerk to remain until the motion for a rehearing is decided. Toe Supreme Ceari. Corrector dence of Thi News axd Obbkbvek. Nothing has been said in opposition to the nomination of judges Smith and Ashe, except that they may possibly be "too old" to remr n upon the bench After these gentlemen have gained dis tinction by an honest and capable dis charge of public duty, and are peculiar ly fitted by service to continue in the position; they now occupy, it would be cruel to hold them to answer an indict ment fo having lived too long. This is a new departure in North Carolina. The -young lawyer and the young edi tor and the young everybody eUe had better die quick, and not incur the penalty of "old age." 4 D.

Our nelghbonin Wilmington re ex ercised just now abou.t the purity of the'r j water which is taken from the ( pe Fear above the eity. and will pro bably have to put m additional appara tus tp purify this water before they will bs sure it is not making sickness among them. The city of Richmond is each year; more dissatisfied with; ita wat r, which it is believed is getting steadily more, impure as the country along the James is becoming more populous and the forests are cut away.' i-ixe Potomac water,' supplied to Washington city, is regarded by every visitor and inhabi tant as a disgrace to the capital. The medical faculty attribute? most of the malarial fever so common there to that source. The subject has been before Congress and changes are to be made in their system whereby all the water taken ii'om the Potomao is to be thoroughly purified before it is scnt into the oitv. The fact is, as this country is becoming settled up all of our once, pure streams are becoming more or less foul. Rivers flowing out of mountainous regions oi of sections covered with forest are com paratively pure. But wh.-n man comes in and outs down the trees, plows up the hillsides and the bottoms. and covers the surface with the excreta of his animals and himself, then the mal la begins. This malaria, the doctors tell us now, is conveyed to its victim much more frequently in the water he drinks than in the air he breathes.; Until re oently these local epidemics of typhoid and malarial fever, diphtheria, etc were classed among the; inscru tie mysteries of Providence.: Now they are oertaiily known to flow from fountains of poisoned water. That these nriura waters should become bad and dang , ous b inevitable 4n old and settled countries. v THB WATXB PROPOSBD FOB RiLIIGH. It is proposed to take the water for our city ; from some of the , neighboring streams. : hese streams now have the ad vantage of flowing through a partially wooded and sparsely settled count But j the analyses wo have made of their waters, taken under very fa vorable circumstances on asccunt of the recent unusual rains, shojr " that their purity is not above the average of such creeks, and render it tery probable that these waters will become aotiVely injurious during, or after, one of our common summer droughts The contract we are about to. enter into n Raleigh is to last tor twenty ycara. Supposing the Water of. these streams is reasonably safe at present, i is tery doubtful if it will be good five years, or ten years, from now. The for ests on their head waters are being rap idly destroyed, and the lan4 is to be plowed and manured; men and animal will multiply greatly along their banks in twenty years. is penecuy cior therefore, that adequate . provision should be made now for the. thorough, nitration and cleansing of the water wherever it is obtained. " With the in ventions of modern science and cngrn eering this can bo done, aa I shall show at moderate additional expense; and our oity should make this provision for pun bed wattr at the very beginnmg. WATJtR FOB DRIKKtMd. It is a tery ignorant and shortsighted tiew ! which supposes that it will b sufficient to fill the mains in our streets with any sort of filthy iwater. Dirty water will put out fires, they say, as well as pure; but that, we hopej is to be the rarest use to which it is to be put. Im pure Water is a nuisance 'everywhere It poisons man and animal, it makes sediment, or cake in the boilers, it causes bad work in the - laundry. Pure water, clear and sparkling 'is : not only the greatest boon to mankind, promot- iog neaitn ana sooriety, buv- it is necessity for many industries. For dying and printing works, for tanniog for breweries, distilleries ete.; pore a a tcr is an absolute neoessity- An abnnd ant supply of good wat jr in Raleigh will promote all kinds of industries. OUS WILLS MUST BB OltBM CP. It is evidently desirable that the use of well water for drinking u our oity should be entirely giten up. The causes which render the flowing water of the populated country impure are hundred-fold - more active in the cities. ; The wells of ; cities, sur rounded as they are on all sides by a surface covered with privies, stables and -miscellaneous debris, by aBoil saturated frith the leach in gs Of all manner of filth for years, furnish the worst and most dangerous types of drinking water. It is perfectly inevitable that the majority of our eity wem must become unfit for use. Medi oal men are agreed on this point. Ty- pnoia lever, diphtheria, dysentery, etc., nave been traoed time and again in many places to the wells. - In fact, it is the prevalent opinion that' the wells of cities add towns are the chief means of propagating these diseases. . In some parts of our city, where the oitixons have large, well-kept grounds around them, the wells will doubtlrss remain pure for some time!h)Dger. But our analyses of wells in the thicker set- tied parts of our town show that they are already largely contaminated. It will not be Iodct at the rate at which our city is filling up before eight tenths of our wells will be unfit for use iu this way. The water supply should not be pro vided to protect property from fire, to supply boilers and promote Industry alone. The first consideration should be to supply clear, pure, living water. If this is not done it is doubtful if the water-works can be suonesful. The people are not going to take it iuto their homes, if it ia not purer than their wells. IM OLD COCNTRIISi The ultimate result of this inevitable contamination of all natural waters is fully illustrated in China where no person who cau afford a little fire, drinks a drop of water until it has been boiled, and in Europe, where the American prohibitionist who insists on drinking their water, because every other drink is liable to contain aloohol, is regarded as a poor fool on the way to this stranger's burying lot. Well-to-do people in the continental cities drinjt no water, ex cept mineral or prepared waters. Since the invention of means of purifying water, all European cities, and many in this country, hare modified their works and put in theae improvements. My object ia writing tjua j to pree xur dry fathers to .make ample , provisions of thai kind m the beginning, so that w'may not suffer from epidemic or finan cial disaster later. BOW TO PUBirV WATER. How can water be purified in large quantities ? This is the great sanitary question of the day. Job asked very skeptically "who can bring a clean thing out of ant unclean?'- Modern science and engineering has answered the question which he thought impossi ble, lhe old methods of filtration, whioh were really nothing more than straining, only removed the solid im purities. These collected in the filter. decayed and poisoned the water passing t ouph afterwards so that "the last condition of that man was worse than the first." Then filters were made whioh could be cleansed of the collected im purities, but the latest production of science are the so-called chemical filters The old filters did not affect the dis solved ingredients of the water, which ere often the most dangerous ones, but the improved, or chemical filters oxidize, or coagulate and precipitate these dis solved substances and then reuieve them Ta W 1 1 . 11 l may juage Dy the success of one of the processes of this kind whioh I had the opportunity of examining at the New Orleans expo- siuou, inese niters are a great trims pn of m era invention. The Hyatt filters of the iN.iw Orleans exposition worked on that ) bominable Mississippi river water and i .'k from eight to ten tons of filth out of the average supply of a million and a half gallons eacn day. As I recol lect, the water was first aerated, then treated with chemicals, which threw down the impurities, and finally perfectly niter ed. : Aeration is nature's own method of purifying water and forms the most im portant of these agencies. It has been shown that germs cannot propagate in Water charged with air under pressure w ater nurihed and prepared in th-' way is a "tiling of beauty. As it comes foaming and sparkliog from the feun tain it is the most inviting' beverage and greatest material blessingd mankind can possess. A 8UCCISS ' w m a . i ;my connaenco in this process was gtcatly ineroased by the very favorable report on it made to Congress last June by the United States engineers appointed to propose a plan for puri fying the Washington water. After investigating all the processes the engineer making the report adopted the Hyatt process, the one used , at the exposition, as the best. I mention this only to show that a method of purifying water rapidly and in lsrge quantities has been approved by tbe higLest au thority. If y were asked to sngpest a practical plan, therefore, I should say psss the water taken from its natura. bed, wherever that may be, first through a filtering bed into the wells, then aer ae it and pass it through the cbeurca' fitters If this is done, a I believe.it orn be, rtalcizh would be sure of a pure water. Otherwise, I should say, let us have none, but wait until we are able to; have the pure . Chas. W. Dabhuy, Js. moeiratte Banalaaaa Representative, J ohn Gaston: Wilson.
